As my leg was feeling good in my morning session I went to the next town and played last night which in hind sight was a mistake as I re-injured my leg again during warm ups!!!
Althogh I hurt my leg again it only hurt when I ran full speed so I concentrated on defense and jump shooting and I managed to do both pretty well considering I only had one leg!!!
I have decided that I am not going to play this week at all to see if my leg heals ready to restart training again next week.
I am planning to shoot only 3 times a week and to do 2 conditioning sessions with court sprints and full court layups to get my sprining going again as I have noticed that my full court play is really weak compared to my half court play.
I need to get back to being a race hourse again where I am full speed 100% of the time instead of jogging the ball up the court half of the time.
This is especially important as I am the offense that I am implementing at the moment is basically forcing turn overs and scoring layups on the counter attack so I need to urgently increase my fitness and drop some weight to keep up with the offense.
Also the majority of the training session we have at the moment are half court due to problems with the courts we play ( one court only has one rim and the other has a hole in the floor due to a problem with the paint used to refurbish it.) This is another reason that my fitness is much better half court!!!
For the week that I am resting my leg I am going to walk with the dog and to the court and only shoot freethrows to not hurt my calf muscle any more.
